T all wh' om z't mag cancer-ml I Be i 'knownthat 1, WILLIAM HkDaiwoma citizen of the United States oi America,

residin at Los Angeles, county of .An'-

geles, tate of California, have invented a certain new and useful Non-Cumulative Wax Polish; and I. do hereby declare. the following to be a full, clear, and exact'description of the invention; such as will enable others;

skilled in the art .to which it appertainsto" make and use the same.

, a novel and-improved 'compositionfor the- This inventionxrelates to a'novel and improved non-cumulative wax polish for cleanand polishing varnished or enameled work or surfaces.- Y

- One object of the invention is to provide purpose specified, which is comparatively 'inexpensiveto manufacture, has no ingredientsat all harmful to the finest varnished work, and -which is easily applied and fective adapted to produce quick'and lasting results i if, with comparatively little rubbing.

Further objects of the invention are to provide a novel and improved cleaning and polishing-composition,which is high y efwax but is of such character-that the wax is non-cumulative no matter how' many 'dif? ferent times the compositionis applied to varnished or enameled surfaces; Other objects and advantages of the in-. vention will appear ,from a careful consideration'of the description which follows:

ingredients water, soap, diatomaceous earth, wax and'distillate. I

The water first heated,- then the soapf preferably Ivory .or other substantially pure soap-'is dissolved in the hot water, and thenthe diatomaceous earth is added and preferably paraflin or cerosin, isv .melted and mixed with the distil1ate,"and' then the mixture of the wax and distillate isadded "ator'naceo'us earth; and then -dients are thoroughly r its purpose, andwhich contains The composition consists of the following 8,594. ama nii 2, m1,

varnish so that the wax is noncumulative.

The composition may be applied'to the varnishedsurface by rubbing with cotton waste, i

cloth, chamois skin, etc. Any suitable es senti'al oil or the like may-be added to the composition to give it an-agreeable odor.

The ingredients after bein mixed and emulsified as set forth rem a1n mixed and in I suspension and 'form a homogeneouscompoe SllJlOILWhlCh can be-used to clean, polish and produce a coating of waxon varnished or enameled surfaces, and is .adapted to leave thesurfaceswith a hard, glossy and 'erfect finish which is finger-markproof, aci proof,

dust-proof -and weather-proof, and which lean be washed-by water without "any bad efi'e'ct-on the finish. "The ingredients-enumerated, with the exception of the diat0- -imaceou's earth, form an emulsion in: which the diatomaceous earth is in suspension. A f part of the diatomaceous earth has a tendency after a tim'e-tosettle in', the bottom of the container, andit is'therefore advisable to shake the contents of :the containerthoroughly before using so as tobring'all the ingredients into a homogeneous mixture.
